A little bit about me

Hi! I’m a certified elementary teacher with several years of experience as both a classroom teacher and nanny. I have a passion for helping children learn through play, exploration, and meaningful experiences, and I believe childhood should be filled with curiosity, creativity, and plenty of time outdoors!

I’m looking for the right nanny family, but I’d also love to connect with two or more like minded families who are interested in creating a nanny share. I love the idea of children having built in friends to learn and grow alongside while still receiving the individualized attention of a small group setting.

My goal is to create a warm, engaging environment where children can spend their days exploring nature, reading books, creating art, building social skills, and learning through hands on experiences.

Building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents is incredibly important to me. I’d love to connect and see if we’d be a great fit! 😊

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Relevant experience includes working as a substitute elementsry teacher, full-time nanny, daycare teacher, Montessori teaching assistant, outdoor trip leader, summer camp counselor, and au pair. Throughout these roles, I’ve cared for children of various ages while creating safe, engaging, and nurturing environments that encourage curiosity, independence, creativity, and a love of learning.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love spending time outdoors with children and going on nature walks, exploring parks, building forts, collecting treasures from nature, and encouraging curiosity about the world around us. I also enjoy reading books, arts and crafts, sensory play, baking, music and movement, imaginative play, gardening, simple science experiments, and hands-on learning. I strive to create fun, meaningful days that balance adventure, creativity, and plenty of free play while following each child’s interests.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and trusting environment where children feel seen, supported, and free to be themselves. I believe the best learning happens when children feel secure, have the freedom to explore their interests, and know they are cared for with patience, kindness, and respect. Building a strong relationship with both the children and their families is something I value deeply, and I strive to make each day joyful, meaningful, and full of opportunities for growth.
